Getting busy!


So many things!

I’ve been swimming and biking and running and then more swimming.  Honestly, it’s a lot of swimming.  And biking.  And running.  Finally seems to really be ramping up—which is great, but also kind of terrifying!  So far so good, though, and I’ve managed to make it work.  I realized I always get worried when I see the volume go up, but have yet to have any problems making it sooo..trying not to stress it.  Also, I haven’t missed a single workout yet (except for some strength stuff, which is usually because I forget, and which I usually make up another day) so that’s actually really encouraging when I think about it.  :)

Loving the new road bike!  Trying to get a new tri frame.  We’ll see ;)

This week has been slightly less (but only slightly), but included a really long Wednesday to make up for not too much this weekend.  4250 yard swim, 60 min run (20x0:40 so it wasn’t exactly an “easy” run) and 90 minute bike (6x6:00 hard, big gear, so again, not an “easy” bike).  But I got through it all!  Super proud of that, especially since it was a less-than-awesome swim (to put it lightly).  I guess I came back swinging on the run and bike.  Especially knowing that I wouldn’t have been able to do so well a while ago—I was happily surprised at how I was able to still push it at the end of those hard bike intervals, and proud of my legs :)

Anyway, today is our anniversary!  So, heading off home early to get in my bike, before going out for dinner.  I think that’s why I had so much yesterday, too—I had asked for a weekend day with a little “less;” for our anniversary I’m giving Allen an entire Saturday that does not include any training.  Except a short swim.  Ok, so barely any training ;)

79 days to go and I’m both terrified and..well, terrified.  But in a good way.  Focus!
